Creobroter in Malaysia?

[mantidsandgeckos]

If they occur in Malaysia, which species do?Thanks

Malaysia is rather large. If you mean W-Malaysia, there should be 2 or 3. But Creobroter species are rare in rainforest regions and rarely found (Thailand is an exception, but after all it doesn't belong to the rainforest region anyway; that's a longer story). In Malaysia, there is an interesting small species with a band on the wings (similar to Theopropus) instead of an eye-spot. Those would be really interesting, as previous culturing attempts were fruitless.

Creoboter urbanus is one of the creo's you can find over there.

here is a link that i found a while ago with nice pics of mantids from Malaysia.

I like the Parhymenopus davidsoni the most.
